About The Role
LGBT Foundation is an impactful, vibrant charity with a wide portfolio of well-established services
and rapidly developing new initiatives aimed at meeting the needs of lesbian, gay, bisexual and
trans people. We are looking for a Sexual Health Officer to join our Sexual Health Team in Greater
Manchester.
The Sexual Health Services Officer will support the delivery of targeted sexual health services,
specifically working towards key quality, performance and activity targets. You will work closely
with the Sexual Health Coordinator – Community Engagement to produce and facilitate a variety
of outreach activities throughout Greater Manchester.
This role will require you to create and strengthen connections with relevant groups,
organisations and influential individuals across Greater Manchester. This will enable you to reach
LGBTQ+ people with information and support in helpful and appropriate contexts. A strong
awareness of how intersectionality affects access to sexual health services and information is
vital for this role.
You will deliver a range of targeted sexual health interventions (including workshops, brief
interventions and one-to-one support) in a wide variety of settings across Greater Manchester
with LGBTQ+ people. You will ensure that activity, performance and monitoring data is kept up to
date on our central management system (CMS), producing reports as and when requested.
You will support with the recruitment, training, and shift-allocation for volunteers who will deliver
our community engagement work. This will include getting to know the volunteers’ individual skills
and strengths, as well as keeping them updated with what the team are up to, and what’s
available.
In addition, you will help the team ensure that workshop content, resources and activities are
representative of the diversity of the LGBTQ+ communities. This will include different sexual
health needs and sexual experiences. Content from the Sexual Health Team aim to celebrate
diversity whilst highlighting the needs of underrepresented communities in sexual health service
provision.
We are taking positive action to encourage applications from people of colour (PoC) and other racially minoritised communities, trans*, non-binary, and/or older people (aged 50+), to improve the representation of colleagues from these communities in our staff team.
- Trans is an umbrella & inclusive term used to describe people whose gender identity differs in some way from that which they were assigned at birth; including non-binary people, cross-dressers, and those who partially or incompletely identify with their sex assigned at birth.
